Nominated for editing, yeah. I'm assuming Irish is talking about that old(ish) Variety article.Quoting Wryan (view post)
But the relationship between Best Editing and Best Picture is known. Every single Best Picture winner since 1980 (when Ordinary People won, without an editing nom) was also nominated for editing, and the majority also won. Up until the time of the Variety article, I mean, which E pointed out above me.
